A New Backcountry Hut from an Historic Mining Office...

Before - West Side - 2017
The North London Mining Office, built in 1883, once served as the office to the North London Mining Company. It was well-built, with two chimneys, plaster-on-lath walls and tongue-in-groove floors. It served as work and living quarters for mining managers and investors. NoLo is working to rehabilitate the historic building as a backcountry hut similar to those of the 10th Mountain and Summit Hut Associations.
The exterior of the Office was completed during the summer of 2020. With a fully-funded budget of about $250,000, NoLo is working to have the Office open to the public for the winter of 2022. The Office will feature running water, flush toilet, solar electric, and a wood stove. Like most Colorado huts, we will provide firewood, a fully-equipped kitchen with propane cooking, and sleeping bunks and beds.
